Okay, now this chapter was very difficult. It was more difficult than the last chapter.

Enjoy! (I hope.)

"Gomu- Gomu no Pistol!" The robot flew and the laser shot towards the ocean. Ryoku looked at his crewmates. Luffy was pink and steam was exuding from him.

"You okay, Ryoku?" asked Ussop.

"Yea, thanks," said Ryoku. He pulled out his guns and his magazine clips. He hid behind the nearest boulder and loaded his explosive bullets. When he finished he got punched in his side, and he flew towards his crew. He looked at the Mega-Bot several meters in front of them. It was entirely black and had an egg head. On his shoulder it showed MBX-1, other than that he had no other outer features. Almost like it was an oversized toy. What perplexed Ryoku was what it just did.

"Did that thing just do Soru?"

Everyone was prepared now. Luffy, Zoro, and Sanji all charged at the opponent, only to find to be effortlessly knocked away. Zoro stood up; he rushed at the opponent and stuck its armored plating. He discovered that his swords just glanced off. The Mega- Bot grabbed him by the neck and threw him several kilometers behind him.

"Zoro!" yelled Ryoku.

"You are no match Strawhats," said the Mega-Bot. Robin crossed her arms and sprout arms all over his arms and legs to prevent from any movement. The enemy moved effortlessly as if he wasn't restrained at all. Robin tried very hard to keep its arm from moving up, but it was useless. He fired a barrage of exploding bullets at Robin. Ryoku saw this and used Soru to carry Robin away, but the bot just kept aiming at them.

"Mouton Shot!" yelled Sanji and he kicked the bot in the head. The enemy flew away several yards, but Sanji lay in sand clutching his feet. The Mega- Bot recovered from his surprise attack and came in for the kill.

"Strong Hammer!" Franky came in and punched the Mega- Bot in the head, which stunned the bot for a few moments, but dented his knuckles a little bit in the process.

"Gomu- Gomu no Jet Gatling!" Luffy ran in and tried to hit the Mega-Bot. He managed to slightly push it back, suddenly its eyes turned blue. It immediately caught both of Luffy's fists and flung him to the sea. Luffy stretched his arm to grab the ship's mast and flung himself next to Ryoku who was charging up a Rankyaku. Chopper immediately pulled Sanji away with his heavy point.

"Rankyaku, Amane Dachi!" Ryoku launched his Rankyaku and pulled out his guns and started to shoot while the Mega- Bot was taking in the Rankyaku.

Explosion

The citizens of Auer screamed. They looked towards the east and saw clouds of smoke coming from the area.

"Citizens of Auer, please return to your homes, I repeat, please return to your homes."

Chaos and panic surged through the crowd, as people rushed their possessions and their children to their homes.

Back to the Battle

When the smoke cleared, the Mega- Bot wasn't there. Everyone looked for it, and it appeared behind Ryoku.

"Ryoku! Look out!" yelled Ussop. Ryoku looked behind him and the Mega- Bot lifted him up by the neck.

It immediately rained blows towards Ryoku's unprotected head.

"Tekkai Gou!" said Ryoku. The punches were still painful. While he was being punched he sneakily attached a bomb at the chest of the bot. The bot did a final uppercut and Ryoku flew towards the ocean. He landed near the horizon. Ryoku was almost unconscious when he hit the water. In a few minutes, someone swam to him and helped him towards the shores.

Meanwhile

"Those fools think they can take on that machine, that thing is indestructible," said Aokiji. The 3 admirals watched from the distance as they see the Mega- Bot tearing through the Strawhat pirates. Aokiji was taking a nap and Kizaru was watching, but also absent minded about the fight. Akainu was the only one truly watching the fight.

"I wish I can go in there and deal with them myself," snorted Akainu.

"We can't, Fleet Admiral's orders," said Kizaru.

"We'll have our fun when the time comes," smirked Aokiji.

Back to the fight

Ryoku was coughing up blood as he was dragged to the shores. When he looked at his savior, it was Zoro.

"Thanks," said Ryoku.

"No problem, let's get back to fighting," said Zoro. He lifted Ryoku up to his feet. When they ran back, their crew was in ruins. Everyone was on the floor to hurt to move, or unconscious. The only person who was able to fight was Franky. When the Mega- Bot charged up its last laser, Ryoku pulled out his detonator and tried to destroy the Mega- Bot. Zoro readied his stance, preparing to strike at the bot with all his might. When the smoke cleared, the bot turned towards them. The torso area opened, but otherwise it seemed unharmed. Zoro charged at the bot.

"Oni Giri!" Zoro slashed at the bot angrily.

Franky slowly stood up, only to fall back down. He stood up again successfully and changed his arm into some sort of launcher.

"Time to put it to the test."

Zoro got knocked down like a rag doll, and knocked unconscious. Ryoku fired at the bot. He unloaded his entire clip, but even then the bot was unaffected.

"You are no match for my power, Gunslinger." It punched Ryoku in the temple. He picked him up and was about to leave with him.

"Oi, look over here," yelled Franky. The bot turned around. Franky aimed at the torso and fired a small chip.

The Mega- Bot was jittering around; the systems were being electrocuted by Franky's new weapon. There were sparks and explosions inside the bot. It dropped to the along with Ryoku. Franky, satisfied the monstrosity was defeated, dropped to the floor unconscious.

Back with the Admirals

"Hmm, I guess they had a chance after all," said Kizaru. Aokiji lifted his sleep mask, and looked. The robot fell.

"I guess you're right," Aokiji stood up and stretched.

Akainu took out a transponder snail, "Fleet Admiral, the Mega- Bot has fallen,"

"Collect the bot and return to the base, I have a mission for you," said Sengoku.

"Yes, sir," Akainu stuffed the snail in his pocket. All 3 of them went down to the beach and got the Mega- Bot.

"What a waste of money, this thing costs more than 3 pacifista," said Kizaru.

Akainu looked at Ryoku, who was unconscious, "Better be ready, next time I'm going to kill you."

They all left the Strawhat crew lying on the sandy beaches.

A half hour later

A woman came up to the scene and saw the Strawhats unconscious. She saw that a black horse was nudging against its master, hoping to wake it up. She used her devil fruit powers, split up herself into clones, and picked up the whole crew. She was personally carrying Ryoku and blushed as she was carrying him.

Sorry for the short battle scene. I couldn't think straight. Next chapter is going to be better though. R&R!
